Happy holidays…happy holidays!

No, it’s not December yet, but West Virginians are already busy helping the U.S. Forest Service prepare for the Capitol Christmas Tree. This year, the tree will come from West Virginia’s Monongahela National Forest (the third time West Virginia has been chosen to provide the tree). In addition to the large 60+ foot tree, West Virginia also will provide 60 companion trees (normal size trees) that will be located in various Capitol buildings.

Of course, these trees need decorations! The U.S. Forest Service has tasked groups all over the state, including 4-H and CEOS, to help provide handmade ornaments for the various trees. The project team is also looking for help with handmade tree skirts for the various trees. Many of our 4-H camps are hosting a service project around this effort.

This is a great opportunity to celebrate the state and its culture to thousands of visitors who will see the tree later this year.

To participate or learn more about this project, visit the Capitol Christmas Tree site for details.
If your CEOS group participates, please be sure to let us know. WVU Extension Communications would like to film some video of groups working on this project and/or with their finished ornaments or tree skirts. You can email ExtensionCommunications@mail.wvu.edu with those details.
